Airspace capacity is limited by the ATCOs' control resources, which depend on their workload. For a sectorized airspace, a variety of workload models for distributing air traffic equally among controllers exist, but approaches for a sectorless airspace are absent. This paper is the first to establish a workload model for Flight Centric ATC by adapting a workload model for sectorized airspace
